hi,

My freezer space is going to be drastically reduced soon as I am getting a new flatmate, possibly two. I have loads of stuff which just never seems to get used, its all a bit random so please can you give me some ideas on how to use it.

This is the list -

* 3 tortilla wraps
* 2 bags of peas
* 1/2 bag of carrots
* 2 breaded fish
* 500g mince x 2
* 1/2 bag of chinese veg
* Hadock Loin
* 50 mini sausage rolls
* Mini Sweetcorns
* 1 and 1/2 bags of roast potatoes
* Makerel fillets
* Gammon Joint with honey
* 1/2 bag of Veg pakora's
* 1 bag of chopped spinach
* 1 + 1/2 bag of floret mix
* 1 bag of diced sweede
* 4 lamb chops
* 2 sausages
* 2 pieces of bacon

Thanks

TD

    hi,

    My freezer space is going to be drastically reduced soon as I am getting a new flatmate, possibly two. I have loads of stuff which just never seems to get used, its all a bit random so please can you give me some ideas on how to use it.

    This is the list -

    * 3 tortilla wraps - use to make quesilladas (see Nigella Lawson site) or cut into triangles and deep fry = tortilla chips
    * 2 bags of peas
    * 1/2 bag of carrots
    * 2 breaded fish = Fish and chips with peas
    * 500g mince x 2 = chilli, spag bol, cottage pie, pasties, meatballs, burgers, moussaka or layer with spinach and cheese sauce
    * 1/2 bag of chinese veg
    * Hadock Loin = fishcakes, kedgeree
    * 50 mini sausage rolls
    * Mini Sweetcorns
    * 1 and 1/2 bags of roast potatoes
    * Makerel fillets = serve with salad and new potatoes
    * Gammon Joint with honey = serve with salad and mash use left overs with the stir fry veg or have as a roast dinner with roast potatoes, mini sweetcorn and peas
    * 1/2 bag of Veg pakora's = see lamb chops
    * 1 bag of chopped spinach
    * 1 + 1/2 bag of floret mix
    * 1 bag of diced sweede = boil and use as a topping for cottage pie or have as a side veg mash with butter and pepper or a little nutmeg
    * 4 lamb chops = have them as is with veg or chop up the meat and make a lamb curry serve with rice and pakoras
    * 2 sausages = sunday breakfast
    * 2 pieces of bacon = sunday breakfast

    Thanks
